Recap of Blockchain meetup #4

RECAP OF MEETUP #4

Our meetup events are focused on bridging technology to people in an interactive and informative way. This edition we had three speakers who explained more about how to build software and business using blockchain technology.

Tuesday June 26th we had our fourth ‘blockchain knowledge exchange’ meetup. During this edition we got great insight by 3 speakers on how blockchain technology can be applied. It’s hard to summarize an evening in just a few words but this page gives an overview of what happened.

During this blockchain meetup

We had Joris Hoogeboom from Pau who onboards companies to blockchain explaining what he does and show us a live demo of a blockchain connected power plug. Our second speaker, Jeffrey Middelbos from Farmatrust, told us more on their global tracking system for medical drugs. After a break and a drink in downstairs cafe ‘De Zwarte Doos’ we continued to our third and last speaker of the evening. Wietse Wind, who is well-known in the XRP twitter community, gave us an inspiring presentation on some of the ins and outs of building software on the XRP ledger.

Who are we?

Our vision is to create a community, bring together people and foster discussions around blockchain. We “bridge”​ people in blockchain tech, cryptocurrencies, socially and in business to create a room for discussions and sharing.

Our blockchain think tank is based in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. We are open for collaboration and always looking for interesting projects and speakers.

Help us grow the crypto community

We are a non-profit organization that is run by volunteers but that doesn’t mean we are not ambitious in our plans! Please help us grow so we can facilitate more events, attract international speakers and continue to expand a sustainable blockchain knowledge community.

Your XRP crypto tips are welcome!

Pay with cash or crypto?

We offered our attendees the opportunity to pay the event fee of € 5.- cash in euro or in 6 different forms on cryptocurrency. Of course we hope that ease of crypto payments for us and participants will increase and become so safe and smooth that for future events we don’t even need cash-exchange or a money-box.

What’s next

Of course the holidays are next; beach, sun, festivals and relaxation. That doesn’t mean we are going to sit still and refresh our blockfolio all day long… We have multiple events coming up for which we will invite you via our meetup group and posts on this website. Here’s what’s next:
